Michelle Obama, Thom Browne for Inauguration Day

Compare this outfit with her yellow outfit from four years ago. Where as her ensemble four years ago was bright, optimistic, and quirky, this is a much more subdued, even sombre one. But I really like it! There was talk of her doing a repeat, wearing what’s already in her closet. I agree with those who said it would be most appropriate for her to wear something new, but this is in keeping with our more subdued times. What do you think?
